That was some vintage Smitty poo right there.  It shows it better in the replay from a different angle the way he just sidesteps Jenkins and brushes him to the side with a slight wave of the arm using his momentum to send him flying, then proceeds to juke the other guy out of his shoes for the TD.  Haven't seen Smitty burn anybody that bad in a while.

Probably my 2nd favorite Smitty owning trash talker moment.

#1 is still that bum from the Giants game in NY. He got in Steve's face and bumped him, then on the next play Smitty jumps and catches a 40yd bomb from Delhomme and trucked that fool at the goal line.

Can't really count the Smoot incident. Smitty murdered that poor bastard for 60 minutes.

That Minnesota game in 2005 was my first game since the 96 Pittsburgh game. 

 

He wore Smoots out like a red headed step child.

 

Nothing more to say about Smitty he won the Triple Crown of Receiving that year.

I saw a clip of that game and heard the announcer calling for a TKO after Steve's eleventybillionth catch on Smoots.

"My god this is getting ugly. If they aren't gonna give Smoot some help they need to take him out. He can't possibly want anymore of #89."

I was standing and cheering (by myself in my living room) during the game for the plays he was involved in...

I was getting fired up and excited during the brawl.....

I cried out OLE after I saw his matadore move.....

i laughed myself silly when he walked away with a big smile in the on-field interview ......

I got choked up when he became emotional talking about his 800 th catch after the game......

I will NEVER forget this game... Nor will I ever forget what #89 has done for this franchise. As far as I am concerned they can start working on a sculpture for him already

    • Or just don't be an ass and hang out in the left lane. Just use common courtesy. The people who tailgate and be an ass are no better and its not a surprise that a lot of road rage incidents occur when inconsiderate people and assholes cross paths. Just make an effort not to be either. "Not allowing the bully to bully you" is also being an inconsiderate ass to the people behind the "bully" who would also like you to GTFO of the left lane.
    • It was completely disgusting and the most obvious fix I’ve ever witnessed. Deflating. It’s probably gone on for decades but high def TV has truly outed the egregious ‘officiating’. When was the last time a small market team was allowed to win a SB?  Offensive holding is it, and it’s so predictable. 2nd and 7 turns in to 2nd and 17. Defense pins their ears back, covers the slot guy and TE roaming the middle, and watches for the WR/RB screen. D line needs to maintain gap integrity. The deep shot to the WR down the sideline is a low percentage play so no real worry there. Most average O lines won’t be able to convert.  Loser getting too close to FG range in a close game? Holding. Winner needs a short field? Holding. DCs love them some obvious passing downs. Narrows down the playbook and significantly puts the odds in their favor. Put a team in 2nd/3rd and long all day and they are NOT going to win that game. It would be interesting to do a statistical analysis of the relationship of holding calls and game outcomes.  This is where having skill position people that can go yard on any given play is so valuable. 
    • It can still be enjoyable.  I don't think the players are in on it.  I mean, I think they probably understand the "business" but they are trying.  So it's fun to watch them.  But I admit I'm not even close to emotionally invested as I was before the SB50.  It also just happens it's usually on a Sunday and I don't have much going on anyway.  I really think it's just one head ref that can push a game the way he wants it from instructions from the man upstairs.  Why else do they keep bad refs?   I don't think it always works out when they try to push the game though but more often than not it works.  Sometimes a team can beat the refs and the opposing team but it's rare.
